All it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing. Silence is doing nothing and it's certainly giving the appearance that most Muslims agree with what's going on. I guess they have to decide what's more important: being accepted by peers or standing up and saying that this is blasphemous to Islam (if this is what they truly believe). They shouldn't expect non Muslims to understand that most Muslims aren't like that. It should make them mad as hell, mad enough to stand up and decry these moronic zealots.

Guilt is a worthless emotion. It only serves to cripple a person from speaking the truth about who they are and what they've learned from their mistakes.
